The Exped LLC crew was busy this weekend - soaking up the beautiful fall weather. Two different backpacking locations and a bicycle touring trip as well. Mixing business with pleasure I'm afraid!

The images above show several items of Exped gear in action. Sleeping mats, Venus III tent in fly-only mode, sleeping bags, Exped Air Pillows, and MultiMat. Breakfast and dinner in the wilds!

In particular, please note that the Venus III is Exped's outstanding 3-person tent. In this configuration, the inner tent was left at home and the fly was set up with a footprint. This allows 4 people to sleep comfortably out of the weather at a reduced weight.
